I think something is wrong with my X79-Deluxe or I’m having some bad luck. In my even older system the GLOTRENDS M.2 PCIe NVMe card will let it boot but in the X79-Deluxe it just powers right back down after trying to turn it on.
The Asus Hyper M.2 x16 Card lets the X79-Deluxe power up but the NVME page in the BIOS always looks the same and I don’t see anything new in Windows Device Manager. I tried all the PCIe slots and put the Samsung 970 EVO into different sockets on the Asus Hyper M.2 x16 Card and the light did come on for each socket but no luck. I know you can only use the Asus Hyper M.2 x16 Card in a new X299 or something motherboard but I had seen someone use it in a motherboard without PCIe port bifurcation and just use one SSD.
I only got the SSD and cards because I had read another X79-Deluxe user say they got an PCIe NVMe card to not only work but with the last 4805 BIOS it was bootable. I’d hate to send it all back.
This is on an up to date Windows 10 install.
Why don' the picture insert work?
